In extraordinary, life-affirming photos taken around the world-from
developing villages to urban centers-over the last 40 years, a
photographer makes the bold case that what unites us is more
powerful than the borders that divide us. A portion of the proceeds
for The Bonds We Share will benefit Doctors Without Borders. Hailed
as "photography's new conscience," photographer and psychiatrist
Dr. Glenn Losack has spent a lifetime traveling the world,
determined to extend healing, hope, and compassion. With a camera
in hand, he goes places that tourists rarely visit, including
slums, alleys, and dark streets. He's seen struggle, but he's also
seen our shared humanity: families playing together, laborers
working, the devout praying to their gods. Dr. Losack has found
resilience, joy, passion, and celebration in communities the world
over, even in places plagued with corrupt government, poor
infrastructure, and disease. The 240 captivating photos in The
Bonds We Share, taken in India, the Dominican Republic, Bangladesh,
Cambodia, Morocco, Peru, Tunisia, Sri Lanka, Egypt, the United
States, Eastern Europe, and elsewhere, serve as a remarkable
retrospective of Dr. Losack's work and reveal an essential truth:
we may come from very different cultures, far-ranging geographic
corners, belief systems, and economic circumstances, but we all
share the same desire to work hard, raise families, and lead
fulfilling lives. In this spectacular volume, Dr. Losack
interrogates timely notions of difference and portrays the
commonality of people from different cultures around the globe.
